BETH'S MELT IN YOUR MOUTH BARBECUE RIBS (OVEN)
I almost didn't want to share this ribs recipe because this is one of the dishes that I make that keep my sons coming back home! These can be done with baby back or regular pork ribs. I have also made split chickens this way. The ribs are tender, moist and just slide off of the bone. I know that your family will love them just as much as my family does. I noticed that some are unable to find hickory smoked salt. You can use smoked paprika or just brush the ribs with liquid smoke before applying the rub. The smoke flavor is nice because it helps give the ribs a cooked-on-the-grill flavor. Also, the easiest way to remove the membrane is to work a spoon, or I use the tips of my kitchen shears, into the bottom center of the membrane, work it back and forth to form a "pocket," then I slide my thumbs in and work the membrane off from the center outward to the ends.

MELT IN YOUR MOUTH STEAK
This steak is very very delicious and juicy. My mother says I have spoiled her and swears it is better than the "Outback Steakhouse." If you like tender, juicy steak here it is. Prep time includes an hour for marinating. The longer the better!! If you want to decrease serving size it is not necessary to decrease amount of marinade.

Steps:
- Place thawed steak in a casserole dish fit to size of steaks.
- Sprinkle desired amount of meat tenderizer on one side of each steak and then, using a fork, fork the meat tenderizer into the steak very thoroughly (you cannot overdo it, the more the better!) Flip each steak over and repeat step 2 on other side of steak.
- Combine last seven ingredients in a separate bowl and microwave for 2 minutes.
- Pour mixture over steaks (the heated mixture helps the sugar dissolve and the meat soak the marinade up better but is not required).
- Marinate desired time however the longer the better.
- Put the steak on the grill and cook it how you like it.
- (I usually save the marinade and baste in while cooking, this keeps it extra juicy) Enjoy!

Tips:
- Choose the right cut of meat: Different cuts of meat have different textures and flavors, so it's important to choose the right one for your marinade. For example, a flank steak is a good choice for a marinade that is high in acid, while a chuck roast is a good choice for a marinade that is high in fat.
- Use a flavorful marinade: The marinade is what gives the meat its flavor, so it's important to use a marinade that is packed with flavor. There are many different marinade recipes available, so you can find one that suits your taste.
- Marinate the meat for the right amount of time: The amount of time you marinate the meat will depend on the type of meat and the marinade you are using. In general, you should marinate the meat for at least 30 minutes, but you can marinate it for up to 24 hours.
- Cook the meat properly: Once the meat is marinated, it's important to cook it properly. This will ensure that the meat is cooked through and that the flavors of the marinade are preserved.
Conclusion:
Marinating meat is a great way to add flavor and tenderness to your dishes. By following the tips above, you can create a marinade that will make your meat melt in your mouth. So next time you're cooking meat, be sure to marinate it first. You won't be disappointed!
